Ahead of notching her 23rd double-double, Angel Reese dropped her first-ever Reebok shoe collection. With Shaquille O’Neal as its president, Reebok is about to bring some serious A-game. And this release seems to be just a teaser. To celebrate, the WNBA rookie gifted her shoes to some friends and well-wishers, including La La Anthony. However, La La’s ex-husband, Carmelo Anthony, might not be too thrilled about it.

The MTV VJ shared a close-up snap of the sneakers on her IG story, and wrote, “So proud of you, @angelreese5, on your @reebok collection. Continue to inspire so many of us!!! Love u always,” along with a white heart emoji.

Now, the New York Knicks icon not only endorsed the Jordan Brand as the first signature athlete but is also a huge fan himself. The basketball legend has an almost insane collection of Air Jordans and sneakers, including a few in his name and some gifted by Michael Jordan.

“I was excited to have my own signature shoe with a Jordan Brand or a brand like that. And then we actually made a great shoe. So I’ll always be grateful for this sneaker right here,” Melo had said in a conversation with Architectural Digest. Now with Reebok looking to overthrow its competitors, a friendly banter would only be natural. 

But while Melo might not be up for it, La La is all too excited. The actress often gives a shout-out to Chicago Sky rookie and a reciprocation is only so much she could ask.
